The Adoration Of Jenna Fox

The Adoration of Jenna Fox is a novel that raises a lot of questions. When Jenna wakes up after a year long coma, she has no idea who she is or how she got there. Her parents tell her that they're her parents and show her videos about her previous life, but Jenna feels like something is off. She begins to question what is going on and who exactly she is. Things only get more complicated when Jenna is sent to a special school with only four students, and she begins to remember snippets of her former life, things that weren't on the videos that her parents showed her. A Norton finalist, The Adoration of Jenna Fox is thought-provoking, raising questions about what exactly it means to be human as well as some heavy ethical questions. This tightly-woven medical mystery is set in the near future. So, the technological advances never strain credulity. Fans of Unwind by Neal Shusterman and Battlestar Galactica will love the questions posed by this book, and anyone will be drawn into the emotional tour de force of Jenna's self-discovery. Teens, especially, will resonate with Jenna's struggle to find her own identity separate to what her parents assign her.
